A catch-all mailbox receives emails sent to non-existent email addresses under the very same domain name. For instance, an email message sent to the miswritten suport@domain.com will go to support@domain.com if the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. In this way, you can receive messages from partners or customers who may have sent a message to your email address with a typo or to an old one, which they may still have, but you have already deleted. Just one mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be activated for such a mailbox. The latter is due to the fact that at a certain moment you may start receiving spam messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding restriction implies that the spam will not be sent to a 3rd-party mailbox.
Catch-all Emails in Cloud Hosting
In case you host a domain name on our cloud hosting platform and you have a cloud hosting account, you’ll be able to activate the catch-all feature for any email mailbox that you create under the domain. The Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel includes quite a lot of features, but it is remarkably simple to work with, so setting up a catch-all mailbox takes only one single click of the mouse. All the email addresses that you’ve got will be shown in this section in alphabetical order and you’ll simply have to click on the "Catch-all" button associated with the given email address. Our system will notify you if there’s already another catch-all mailbox activated for that domain name or if the one that you would like to be a catch-all mailbox has email forwarding activated, so you can either deactivate the latter feature or choose some other mailbox. Disabling the catch-all option is just as simple and takes one more mouse click on the exact same button.
Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The catch-all functionality can be enabled without difficulty in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server account with our company. All the email addresses that you have created using the domain names hosted in your semi-dedicated account will be shown in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section and you will find a small-size logo conveniently located right next to each of them. With only one click of the mouse, you can activate or deactivate the catch-all option for any mailbox of your preference as long as there isn't another mailbox under the same domain name with this option already activated and there isn't active email forwarding. Alternatively, you can right-click on a mailbox and activate this option using the menu that will show up. If any of the preconditions for setting up a catch-all mailbox is not fulfilled, our system will inform you, but will not disable or replace anything automatically.
